I recently did Panchakarma at Nature Care Ayurveda. What a beautiful experience this was. My Dr was Dr Naveen Shukla, who was an absolute pleasure to sit in his presence, and I didn't have treatment from Nikhila, but had many an enlightening chat. Both Dr's I feel are very professional, and hold you in their utmost priority whilst undergoing Panchakarma. I also like that they cross reference with each other, so they make a great team. I am continuing to see the benefits of this experience, and know that my health will constantly improve, due to cleaning out the gunk, and setting me back on track. What I enjoyed most, is even though I practise and teach yoga, my pranayama and meditation has really taken off to new levels, and this is causing such great benefits in my life. I am so much clearer, calm, and have a deep appreciation and much greater awareness of what I feed my body and soul. The therapists and overall setting is so clean and accommodating. My only regret is that it had to finish, but I do feel that this is just the beginning of greater things to come. Blessings to you all, and deep gratitude.

It is some 3 months now since having had the 5 day Panchakarma treatment and my health has changed immensely for the better. I can now digest gluten products and no longer have intolerances. Despite the night shift hours I keep as well as a full time study schedule, I am now able to enjoy a much improved quality of sleep, and much less anxiety. An interesting observation is my contentment for smaller portions of meals and the loss of sweet cravings. I did lose some weight as I had hoped but there seems to be a redistribution of weight, so I guess that is better than nothing. If anyone is considering Panchakarma I strongly suggest doing this while you have time off work or study, for optimal results. I still worked night shifts and went for treatments first thing in the morning, followed by bed rest the rest of the day till I returned to night shifts (without telling Dr Naveen). It was exhausting, as your body and system does get a workout, and you really do need to sleep when you are meant to, instead of working against your body clock. Also ideally have someone drive you there and back, so you have as much rest and relaxation. They are a most humble and dedicated team, who have so much to share about health and wellbeing, and are single-minded about one's recovery and road to better health. The science of Ayurveda is amazing, and from what little I have learnt from them and now put into practice, has made a huge difference in my state of mind, my inclinations and in the overall balance in my energy levels that allow me to keep a rather punishing schedule as I do. If you have a week to spare, put your health first over a trip around the country, your body and mind will thank you for it. My most grateful thanks to Dr Naveen Shukla and Alka Mishra, and the most devoted Surina Pilley, in whose capable and caring hands I received the daily treatments. Namaste.
